Build Dynamic Query Using Sp_executesql

Sep 20, 2004

Hi there,

I am trying to build a proc that uses a loop to import data into several tables. The data is copied into the appropriate table according to the contents of the variable @PracticeCode. I am also trying to add a date value to each record as it is added to the table. I thought that the best way to do this would be t use the sp_executesql stored proc. but I am having difficulty getting it to work. Here's what I have done so far:

-- insert data into proper tables with extract date added
SET @SQLString ='INSERT INTO GMS_48hrAccess.dbo.tbl_Surgery'+@PracticeCode+' SELECT
SurgeryKey,'+
@extractDate+',
ClinicianCode,
StartTime,
SessionGroup,
[Description],
SurgeryName,
Deleted,
PremisesKey
FROM GMS_48hrAccess.dbo.tbl_SurgeryIn'

EXEC master..sp_executesql @SQLString

And here's the error message that I get:

Server: Msg 241, Level 16, State 1, Line 90
Syntax error converting datetime from character string.

I understand why I am getting this error I just can't seem to fix it. I've consulted BOl and have tried various Parameter combinations but to no avail.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Sp_executesql From App's Dynamic SQL Causing Performance Problems Vs. Query From SSMS

Aug 12, 2006

Okay, so I came across an odd performance issue that I'm wondering if some guru can help me out with.

I have a query that uses a paging algorithm that uses a paging algorithm and a table variable, then gets a page of data based on a join to that table variable. Here's a simplified query using the algoritm:

--declare table variable... not shown for brevity

--make sure we only store the least amount of records possible
SET ROWCOUNT ( @pageNumber + 1 ) * @pageSize

--insert into table variable
INSERT INTO @TableVariable( Key )
SELECT key FROM table
WHERE whatever = @p1

--we only want one page of data
SET ROWCOUNT @pageSize

--now get the page of data from the table
SELECT key FROM table
WHERE whatever = @p1
AND [TableVar Identity Column] > @pageNumber * @pageSize

The algorithm works great for our needs, BUT, I noticed something a little odd about its behavior during performance testing.

In particular, when I run the query using Sql Server Management Studio, where I manually DECLARE all the variables it ends up needing only 156 reads to complete the job. When I call it from the app using ADO.NET, however, I noticed it needs 310 reads! Huh?

I looked for differences, and the only one I could determine was that ADO.NET passes the query and uses sp_executesql and passes the parameters vs. declaring and setting them statically before executing the query. I confirmed that this was the issue by manually running sp_execute SQL and seeing that it took roughly the same number of reads (274) to process the query.

Naturally, I don't want the time it takes to perfrom my query to double, but and frankly I don't understand why there would be a difference in performance. Can anyone help me track down what is going on and suggest to me how to fix the problem.

I assume that SQL Server Management Studio optimizes the execution path somehow, but I'm not sure how to gain the same benefit for my passed query. Can I enable something with hints? Is there something else going on that I should know about?

Build SQL Query From Dynamic Checkbox List

Nov 26, 2003

Not sure if this is the place to post this, but here goes.

I need to setup an options screen where my customers can customize which locations will be stored for their user id when pulling reports. I have checkbox list that dynamically loads their locations. I need to store the selected checkbox items in my table and then each time they login in to run a report, it will use the stored Location values in my SQL query.

Synopsis:
Selected locations stored in table. When the report is ran, the location values are pulled and added to my queries WHERE clause.

Here is the query..
@ENTITY, @ FIELD, @KEYID, @VALUE comes dynamically using cursor. Here in this example I have took one sample and assigned it a value to do sanity check.

DECLARE @ENTITY nvarchar (100)

SET @ENTITY ='AccidentDimension'

DECLARE @FIELD nvarchar (100)

SET @FIELD = 'UHReceivedDate'

DECLARE @KEYID nvarchar (100)

SET @KEYID = '1074958'

SET @VALUE = '10JAN2020'

DECLARE @FLAG NVARCHAR(50);

SET @FLAG = (SELECT LEFT(@ENTITY, (SELECT CHARINDEX( 'DIM', @ENTITY) -1)) )+ 'LastUpdateFlag';

DECLARE @KeyName NVARCHAR(50);

SET @KeyName = (SELECT LEFT(@ENTITY, (SELECT CHARINDEX( 'DIM', @ENTITY) -1)) )+ 'Key'

DECLARE @KeyValue INT

DECLARE @SQL1 NVARCHAR (1000)

SET @SQL1 = ' SET @KeyValueOUT = Select '+ @KeyName + ' FROM ClaimManagementFact WHERE ClaimKey = ' + @KEYID +

' GROUP BY ' + @KeyName + ' HAVING SUM(TotalClaimCount) > 0 OR SUM(IncidentOnlyClaimCount) > 0 )'

EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQL1, @KeyValueOUT INT OUTPUT;

@KeyValue= @KeyValueOUT OUTPUT;

Select @KeyValue

A) What i want to do is store the value resulting from select statemenet by executing @SQL1 which is INT to @KeyValue. In previous thread I tried various thing but resulting in errors.

Dynamic SQL Sp_executesql And Employee ID List Varchar

Jan 11, 2008

For the example stored procedure below, lets say I want to use the "sp_executesql" stored procedure instead of "EXECUTE".
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[spGetEmployees]
@managerId int,
@employeeIdList nvarchar( 200 )
AS

EXECUTE
(
'SELECT *
FROM [dbo].[hrEmployees]
WHERE [ManagerID] = ' + CAST( @managerId AS nvarchar ) + '
AND [EmployeeID] IN (' + @employeeIdList + ')'
)

I want to rewrite it something like this. Please see MSDN documentation ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188001.aspx ) for sp_executesql stored procedure usage.DECLARE @selectStatement nvarchar(500)
SET @selectStatement = 'SELECT * FROM [dbo].[hrEmployees] WHERE [ManagerID] = @paramManagerID AND [EmployeeID] IN (' + @employeeIdList + ')'

DECLARE @paramList nvarchar(500)
SET @paramList = '@paramManagerID int'

EXECUTE sp_executesql @selectStatement, @paramList, @paramManagerID = @managerId

Reason for using "sp_executesql" is the performance gain.However, as you can see, the @employeeIdList cannot be included as part of the Parameter List ( @paramList )like the @managerId since it **has** to be passed in as a varchar ( example: @employeeIdList = '1,2,3,4' ).
My Question Is there a way to include it as a parameter instead of it being part of the embedded dynamic SQL syntax?

How Do You Build A Dynamic WHERE Statement?

Mar 9, 2006

I have 5 drop down lists and 1 text box, and I need to build the WHERE portion of my SELECT statment (stored procedure). the drop down lists are named client, ptype, apptdate, inspdate, state, and the textbox is named text. they all need to be this=something AND that=another AND...AND text LIKE mytext.
How would I go about building this efficiently?
Would I Declare a bit value in the sp called WhereSet = 0
IF @client IS NOT NULL IF @WhereSet = 0 SET @Where = 'WHERE ClientID=@client' SET @SetWhere = 1 ELSE SET @Where = @Where + ' AND CleintID=@client' . . ....
Or would this be a lot easier using adhoc SQL instead of a Stored Procedure?
(note: I am using a SQL DataSource)
Please help, I am going bald from pulling my hair our...

P.S I know that above select doesn��t really make sense , but I have a bigger query that would be hard to explain in this topic so I just simplified it.

Trying To Build Dynamic Stored Procedure

Jun 6, 2008

My existing ASP 1.0 site keeps getting hacked using SQL injections. I have rewritten the site in ASP 3.5 to stop the attacks but cannot figure out how to dynamically generate a basic keyword search.
I am trying to take the keywords entered into an array and then construct the WHERE clause - not having much luck. Getting either errors or double LIKE statements. Need some help.
string[] SqlKWSrch;
SqlSrch = KWordSrch.Text;SqlKWSrch = SqlSrch.Split(' ', ','); int AStop = SqlKWSrch.Length; int i = 0; foreach( string a in SqlKWSearch ) { if (i <= AStop) { SqlWHR = SqlWHR + "L_Kwords LIKE '%' + " + " '" + SqlKWSrch[i] + "' " + " + '%' AND "; } else { SqlWHR = SqlWHR + "L_Kwords LIKE '%' + " + " '" + SqlKWSrch[i] + "' " + " + '%' "; } i++; }
1) I can't seem to properly terminate the final LIKE statement2) can't figure out how to pass 'SqlWHR' to the procedure
GIVEN KEYWORDS: 'antique chairs' entered I want to end up with the below SP, the @SqlWHR parameter appeared to have worked once but it probably was an illusion.
PROCEDURE KeyWordSearch@SqlWHR varchar(100)AS
SELECT L_Name, L_City, L_State, L_Display FROM tblCompanies WHERE L_Kwords LIKE '%' + 'antique' + '%' AND L_Kwords LIKE '%' + 'chairs' + '%' AND L_Display = 1
RETURN

How Build Web Application (asp.net + C# ) With Dynamic Database Schema?

Mar 26, 2008

Hi all,

I am doing an e-commerce project. This website will have a category of product. Each category will have sub-category. And sub-category may have another level of sub-category. This means the number of sub-category is not fixed. In the sub-category we will have products. Each product will have unpredicable number of properties (1, 2, 3 or many properties).

With the current requirment, I can know exactly the number of sub-category level and the number of properties. But the problem comes when later my boss add more category, sub-category ,... sub-category(more sub-category level), and product, as well as the products properties. At that time my database schema will not suitable for new category, products because the in can only design database with fixed number of sub-category level and fixed number of product properties(attributes or fiels in database).

Therefore, I want to ask all of you that
- Is there anyway to solve this problem?
- how to design database that meet extended requirements as I present above?

Thanks for all of your advices.

Quan.

Exec Sp_executesql Vs. Sp_executesql And Performance

Jul 23, 2005

This is a odd problem where a bad plan was chosen again and again, butthen not.Using the profiler, I identified an application-issued statement thatperformed poorly. It took this form:exec sp_executesql N'SELECT col1, col2 FROM t1 WHERE (t2= @Parm1)',N'@Parm1 int', @Parm1 = 8609t2 is a foreign key column, and is indexed.I took the statement into query analyzer and executed it there. Thequery plan showed that it was doing a scan of the primary key index,which is clustered. That's a bad choice.I then fiddled with it to see what would result in a good plan.1) I changed it to hard code the query value (but with the parmdefinition still in place. )It performed well, using the correct index.Here's how it looked.exec sp_executesql N'SELECT cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.AZEl_Intid AS[Oid], cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.incomplete_flag AS [IsIncomplete],cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.traceflag AS [IsTraceAmount],cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.standardqty AS [StandardAmount],cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.Uitem_intid AS [NutritionItemOid],cbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement.AZeldef_intid AS [AnalysisElementOid] FROMcbord.cbo1013p_AZItemElement WHERE (Uitem_intid= 8609)', N'@Parm1 int',@Parm1 = 8609After doing this, re-executing the original form still gave badresults.2) I restored the use of the parm, but removed the 'exec' from thestart.It performed well.After that (surprise!) it also performed well in the original form.What's going on here?

Problem Running SP_EXECUTESQL With OpenRowSet (with Variable) As Part Of The Query

Nov 27, 2007

Hi,

I had problem when combining OpenRowSet and SP_EXECUTESQL, when i tried to run the following query, it complaints that RESID is not declared. any idea how should i put the query so i will pass @RESID as 1 of the parameter? BTW, i know that the SP_EXECUTESQL is able to run query which length up to 8000, but how about the parameter?

DECLARE @SqlToRun NVARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @RESOURCEIDS NVARCHAR(MAX)

SET @RESOURCEIDS = REPLICATE(CAST('ABC' AS NVARCHAR(MAX)), 1000)

SET @SqlToRun = N'SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET(''SQLNCLI'',
''server=;database=;uid=;pwd='',
''SELECT * FROM WHERE COL=@RESID'')'

DECLARE @PARAMS NVARCHAR(MAX)
SET @PARAMS = ''@RESID NVARCHAR(MAX)'

EXECUTE SP_EXECUTESQL @SqlToRun, @PARAMS, @RESID = @RESOURCEIDS

Error On Build Solution, If SSIS Project Is Part Of Build

Mar 22, 2006

Hello,

we have automated build on every night. In our solution is SSIS project, where each package is encrypted per password. We call build process per command line like this..

C:ProgrammeMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEdevenv.exe (c:DevelopmentX3\X3.sln /build Release)' in 'c:DevelopmentProjectsDailyBuild

Through build process we get a error:

External Program Failed: C:ProgrammeMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEdevenv.exe (return code was 1):

We think a reason is, that on build of SSIS project must be entered a password. You can wonder for what we need that SSIS packages are part of our build. We hope that on build process is also created Deployment Utility, if so set in dtproject.user. Is it so? Is there any way to create Deployment utility on automated build process? Can be a password provided pre command line?

with best regards

Trying To Build An Update Query

Apr 22, 2008

I've got a table that stores individuals, and their organization all in one table, with basic information about each (contactId, name, primary address, phone, etc.). There is also, for each line, a true/false field 'PerOrg' that lets me know if it's a person (true), or an organization (false); and a 'OrgKeyCode' field that has the contactId for the person organization.

I'm looking to make an update query that will make the primary address for all individuals set to the primary address for their corresponding organization. Here's my queries to find the items:

This gets all of the organization, their contactId and their primary Address (as long as they have one).

SELECT ContactID, FullName, PrimaryAddressType
FROM tblContactInformation
WHERE PrimaryAddressType IS NOT NULL AND PerOrg = '0'

This gets a list of all of the individuals that have an organization assigned.

SELECT ContactID, FullName, OrgKeyContactID, PrimaryAddressType
FROM tblContactInformation
WHERE PerOrg = '1' AND OrgKeyContactID IS NOT NULL

Now I need to create an update query that sets the Primary Address for individuals to the primary address for their corresponding organization. Here's what I've got worked out so far: (just the basics).

UPDATE tblContactInformation
SET PrimaryAddressType =
WHERE PerOrg = '1'

At issue is, I'm not sure how to pull the primary address only from the organization into the SET line. Do I need to save my first query, then somehow call it in my update query, where the contactID = the OrgKeyCode? Or something like that?

Trying To Build Count Query

Apr 22, 2008

I have a table which tracks changes by user, department and date. I want to construct a query which returns two numbers, the first is all the changes by department on a certain date. The second is all changes by user on the same date. I know that the queries seperately will look like,

SELECT COUNT(User) As NumberByUser

WHERE (Date = 'DateGoesHere') AND (User= 'UserGoesHere')
GROUP BY User

SELECT COUNT(Department) As NumberByDepartment
FROM Table
WHERE (Date = 'DateGoesHere') AND (Department = 'DepartmentGoesHere')

But how do I go about linking the two in the same query? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Thanks.

ASP/SQL Query Build - Myth Breaking

Jul 20, 2005

Hi GuysI don't want to keep asking for your help all the time on each individualquery, so could you please help me to break the myths on the following:1) I have 2 tables. Once is called ACCOUNTS and the other ACCOUNTBUDGET.ACCOUNTS includes all of the usual details for customers and suppliers, egthe account code (as ACCOUNTID), the account name (as NAME), etc.ACCOUNTBUDGET basically holds a transaction line for each month and it'scorresponding year to store the turnover for that month, eg one row containsACCOUNTID, PERIOD (ie the month), YEAR and TURNOVER.Now a lot of the SQL 6.5 tables that I deal with are in this vein and theusual query is that I want to list all of the ACCOUNTIDs and NAMEs thatexist in the ACCOUNTS table and then show for example what their TURNOVER isfor a applicable PERIOD and YEAR, which are all held in the ACCOUNTSBUDGETtable.Now if I do a quick query using MS Query all I get are rows that haverelated values in both the ACCOUNTS and ACCOUNTSBUDGET table when I havespecified say a certain PERIOD and YEAR.The main point of my current reporting problem is that I want to show allthe ACCOUNTIDs and NAMEs in ACCOUNTS that have zero TURNOVER for aparticular PERIOD and YEAR.I'm positive that I have to create a 2 step query/join, but I don't know howto do it. What is the method? People in this NG, can rattle one up inseconds, but I just don't see the logic. Can you help me with this queryand let me know how you manage to fathom it.2) Are there any good web sites that explain in kiddie form how to do thissort of thing?I really appreciate your help on this.RegardsLaphan

Trying To Build A Query For A TreeView / Navigation Menu

Mar 5, 2007

Hi Everyone,I'm drawing a blank here and I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I have a table with the following columns (some omitted)IDGUIDPageNameParentPageID I want to build a hierarchical navigation system (2-tier). The conceptual problem that I am running into was getting this information from the same table. Initially I was going to use a nested repeater but I am thinking a treeview would be better. Anyway, the problem is the query. How would I start with something like this? Let's use the following as an exampleRows(ID '1', GUID '888....', PageName 'Page A', ParentPageID '-1')(ID '2', GUID '111....', PageName 'Page B', ParentPageID '-1')(ID '3', GUID '222....', PageName 'Page C', ParentPageID '-1')(ID '4', GUID '375....', PageName 'Page 1', ParentPageID '1')(ID '5', GUID '562....', PageName 'Page 2', ParentPageID '1')(ID '6', GUID '874....', PageName 'Page 3', ParentPageID '2')
(ID '7', GUID '388....', PageName 'Page 4', ParentPageID '3') So, I want to be able to build a query so that I can do the followingPage A Page 1 Page 2Page B Page 3Page C Page 4 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I Need To Generate The Query To Build A Database I've Designed. Please Help..

Apr 3, 2007

I've registered with GoDaddy for my site. I've used Visual Web Dev 2005 with SQL Server Mgmt Express 2005 to create my database etc. Now with GoDaddy, I need to "recreate" the database on their server again, but I don't want to go throug the whole process again. I just want to use their query editor to generate the database online.GoDaddy mentions a "personal-sql" file that SQL Server 2000 generates, but I can't find anything like that with what I have. Thanks.
